Ingredients

  • 20 oz cheese ravioli (fresh or refrigerated)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 12 teaspoons truffle oil or 1 teaspoon truffle paste (to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 cup reserved pasta water (as needed)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • Shaved Parmesan for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the ravioli according to package instructions until tender. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
  3. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a light simmer.
  5. Add cream cheese and whisk until smooth and fully incorporated.
  6. Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Simmer for 3–5 minutes until slightly thickened.
  7. Drizzle in truffle oil or stir in truffle paste, adjusting to taste.
  8. Gently add the cooked ravioli and toss carefully to coat in the sauce.
  9. Add reserved pasta water as needed to loosen the sauce and help it cling to the ravioli.
  10. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  11. Garnish with fresh parsley and optional shaved Parmesan before serving.

Notes

  • Start with a small amount of truffle oil, as it is potent.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan for best flavor and texture.
  • Add sautéed mushrooms or spinach for extra depth.
  • Reheat gently with a splash of milk or cream to maintain creaminess.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; freezing is not recommended.
